| Frisco Larson |
Frisco's Mightiest Marvel Silver Age
|
Marvel really began to hit their stride in the mid 1960s, fleshing out their characters while developing a different manner of storytelling and establishing a cohesive Universe where characters from different titles and even different GENRES interacted with each other in a revolutionary way!
This Custom Set will feature Marvel Silver Age comics from the mid 1960s thru the end of the Silver Age, spanning genres from superheroes to war and romance/teen humor to westerns, and whatever other 9.6 and higher Marvels that I can find within these loose set parameters! Universal graded copies are the norm here, but I also enjoy sprinkling in a few Pedigrees and Signature Series comics when I can find them! In fact, there are quite a few pedigree comics in this collection that are certified in Universal labels. While I have no specific criterion for page quality, I obviously prefer to have as close to white pages as I can.
One enjoyable side benefit of this Custom Set versus the pre-defined competitive sets is that beyond being Marvel Comics beginning in the mid 1960s (very loose parameter), the finish line of comics being on the stands by December 1969 and being 9.6 unrestored or better, there is no specificity of which comic issues are to be included in this set. Simply put, it's never incomplete ... never missing anything. I can leave it as it is or add to it ... and it's always complete!

I'd like about 2-3 of a few titles. I have nearly every book I "really" want, but there are a few that I'd like to get some nice-looking mid-grade copies of. Until then, here's my set!

The Complete New Trend EC Crime, Horror and Sci-Fi
|
I bought my first EC in 2009 (TFTC 42) and quickly decided to put together an entire high grade run of Tales from the Crypt. As I learned more about the history of these great books, I expanded that to include all EC horror, then crime, and then sci-fi. My goal is to complete the set with all issues at 8.0 or above.
